MONTPELLIER
Capital of the Languedoc-Roussillon, in the Hérault district, Montpellier, with its Mediterranean climate, is the 8th biggest city in France. Here the sun never sets...
Just 11 kilometres from the Mediterranean Sea, Montpellier is bursting with everything you need to make your stay a resounding success, no matter how short: its history and beautiful architecture, its rich and varied cultural events, its places to visit and way of life to be shared...
Montpellier's architecture, dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries, bears witness to its wealth of history, and stands next to the more recent inspirations of Ricardo Bofill's Antigone quarter, with its solemn and ancient style stretching out towards Port Marianne and the south.
A university city, also designed to accommodate hi-tech industries and the booming computer industry; yet also a cultural city where all types of art have their place.
Wandering in Montpellier, you will discover a town of a thousand and one faces.
Come visit the beautiful region of Languedoc-Roussillon, with its head in the mountains and its feet in the sea. The region is packed full of cultural and historical interest, wonderful food, and sporting possibilities...
